TI MSP432 EKG with EDU MKII

15 Apr 2016

Hello again!

This time bring a very quick project, using the Educational Boosterpack MKII of Texas Instruments and the famous MSP432 microcontroller.

Using the LCD SPI of EDU MKII to show the waveform of the cardiac signal which is previously sampled by the analog digital converter of the MSP432.

Used:

An amplifier circuit instrumentation, inside the board there is an amplifier with a higher gain than 1000V/V for the cardiac signal and a Filter Notch to reject noise of 60 Hz which is emitted by the environment in which the patient.

The microcontroller sampling the waveform every 6 milliseconds, taking 256 values of the cardiac signal and stores them in its memory RAM, then applying a digital trigger allowing a repeatability in the form of heart wave.
